Loss of power when a/c on -- 1993 245 200 1993

Hi all,
In my 1993 245 I really notice a loss of power when the a/c kicks on. I'm wondering if this is universal or if I should be taking a look at the compressor (or anything else) to see if it isn't trying to tell me something. I also notice additional noise when the system is on--hard to describe but kind of a "rough" sounding fluctuating noise: RRRRRRRrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrr. The system is R134.

In my 1990 245 (R12) I don't notice the power loss or the additional noise.

Can anyone either put my mind at ease or light a fire under my butt to get it checked out?
